{"product_id":"borneo-forest-scorpion-heterometrus-longimanus","title":"Borneo Forest Scorpion- Heterometrus longimanus","description":"A striking and robust scorpion species native to the rainforests of Borneo. Heterometrus longimanus is prized by experienced keepers for its impressive size, dark colouration, and relatively docile temperament compared to other scorpion species.\n\nThis species thrives in warm, humid conditions that replicate its tropical forest habitat. Adults typically reach 5–6 inches in length and can live 8+ years in captivity with proper care. They are primarily nocturnal and solitary, requiring a secure enclosure with adequate substrate for burrowing, hiding spots, and consistent moisture levels.\n\nHeterometrus longimanus possesses venom but is not considered medically significant to humans. Handling should be minimal and only by experienced keepers. This is an excellent choice for serious arachnid enthusiasts seeking a long-lived, visually impressive species.\n\nEnsure you have appropriate housing, heating, and feeding supplies before purchase. Live scorpions are shipped with care instructions included.","brand":"Riverview Reptiles","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54240762954057,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0809\/4400\/5449\/files\/longimanus_1.jpg?v=1776780733","url":"https:\/\/www.riverviewreptiles.co.uk\/products\/borneo-forest-scorpion-heterometrus-longimanus","provider":"Riverview Reptiles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
